Uranium in tanning beds? That’s a new one for me. Mercury vapor, certainly, but uranium? Maybe in military rounds, armor, power generation, scientific research and 1920’s era glassware but tanning beds? Notice I’m not refuting the half-wit part.

Yeah, I was just taking a farcical jab at the half-wit’s wildly unnatural pigmentation. Not much of a science buff, and don’t actually know what causes those indoor ultraviolets, but I was pretty sure it wasn’t uranium.

I was curious about the uranium since I frequently work around germicidal lamps and biological safety cabinets and wondered if there was some other technology in Europe or Canada I’ve never heard. They (and common fluorescent lights) use mercury vapor to emit uv radiation but regular fluorescent lights have a fluorescent coating to lengthen the wavelength to visible light and made of regular glass and other coatings to reduce the amount of uv released. Germicidal lamps are quartz glass to allow the uv through to damage any DNA nearby. Tanning lights would have to block higher energy uv-c (esp around 260 nanometers) to avoid serious DNA damage. I’ve had a friend get “sunburns” from working over uv trans-illuminators without a uv opaque faceshield.

Joe Bob here… Bubba’s scratchin’ his head for a change from scratchin’ his other end and wondering, is this some of that fake news everbody’s been talking about. I tolled to stay out of this, it ain’t his dog fight.

That imbecile managed to piss me off even more than usual today. I did military service for my country, being stationed at the NATO military airport closest to the Russian border during the late stages of the cold war. I’ve got nothing against people who haven’t done service though, as long as they don’t do what the chicken-in-chief did today and pretend to be military men. The orange moron who got FIVE deferments from Vietnam pranced around in a navy jacket and cap – not even in somewhere like Iraq, but safely at home in Virginia. Urgh. Plus points to the guy who said that the only jacket Trump should be wearing is a straight jacket:https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/mar/02/donald-trump-military-look-jacket-cap

Joe Biden had 5 deferments had Viet Nam. Asthma. Funny that asthma didn’t stop Joe from playing football in college. Biden’s son Hunter, the one discharged from the Navy for drug use, has now married the widow of Biden’s dead son beau. During the divorce proceedings of Beau and his ex wife Kathleen, there was testimony of alcohol, cocaine, strip clubs , prostitutes, gifts for women who Beau had relations with, and lavish spending that left no money for his family to pay their bills. Apparently Joe is OK with all this. Great family.

So what? Trump hasn’t even tied his own shoes ever, and his sons sacrifice blonde virgins to drink their blood. Just look at them. I get it, the Clinons are bad, Biden is a tool, gotcha. But they’re not Trump. Charles Manson is more coherent and more capable of leading a country than that rape child of an Orang Utan.

Forgot to mention that Hunter Biden got a sweet gig on the Board of Directors of a Ukrainian oil company, just days after his vice president father visited there in 2014. What a coincidence. How do you spell nepotism?

Austrians are pretty used to Americans telling them: “If it wasn’t for us you would be speaking German!” (Sometimes after complaining about the lack of kangaroos). So it’s not a problem really. P.S.: Jetzt fia di net so auf, nua weu i scheh bin und du net!

Actually Austrians do speak their own language, their own German. It’s called “Österreichisches Deutsch” (Austrian German). It differs slightly from the “Bundesdeutsch” or “Hochdeutsch” (Federal German or High German) which is spoken in Germany or the “Schweizer Hochdeutsch” (Swiss High German). A German dictionary is not be used in Austria! The Duden nicely provides both versions though. Kauf Buch didn’t make his homework again.

So now, POTUS Asteriscus V is stealing material from Jake Harper & Bart Simpson’s book reports? I thought Cheeto Benito was more of a bankruptcy & fraud guy than a plagiarizer & a thief. Perhaps his staff read the book for him and messed up the Powerpoint® presentation.
